Eventually, I believe every Member seated in this House would like to have the two-thirds gender rule achieved. I believe it is better if we also empower the electoral commission so that it ensures that nominations and other electoral processes in the country favour the two-thirds gender rule. I believe the whole nation, the current Government, the current Opposition and the House is for the two-thirds gender rule.
